Establish a &quot;Quiet Corridor&quot; in DeKalb County

As a resident of DeKalb County, Georgia, I support the efforts to establish a \"Quiet Corridor\" that covers five railroad crossings along the intown portion of the Seaboard line in DeKalb County. The Intown Seaboard line runs from Hulsey Intermodal Yard to I-285, and it includes at-grade crossings of Dekalb Ave., East Lake Rd., Coventry Rd., Montreal Rd., and Frazier Rd. as well as dozens of affected neighborhoods. The successful implementation of the \"Quiet Corridor\" along the Intown Seaboard line will greatly enhance the quality of life for area residents.

Frankly it gets embarrassing to be on the phone on my porch and have to explain to callers that we have to wait until the train goes by to finish the conversation. As well when friends are over and I entertain inside everyone comments on the train noise. I think property values (and tax revenue) would increase if the crossing were changed to make blowing the train whistle unnecessary.

There is a railroad crossing at the Frazier location; no horns for the train are needed. Please support this petition. In the 12 years I've lived here it seems the train traffic has significantly increased, and of course, the sound of the horns along with it.
